At my best

     There have been plenty of times I have succeeded in life. Such as sports, academics, and when taking a leadership position. I mean everyone succeeds and some point in there life, but there is always that one time you that you feel you did your best or were at you best when you succeeded.
     I felt I was at my best during my senior year around track season. There are a couple reasons I think I was at my best. The first reason is because I was doing great with all of my school work. I was getting good grades, having great time managment with track and academics, and doing great on all of my tests. Getting good grades is huge part of succeeding.
     The second reason I feel I was at my best was because I was in doing great in track. Track is an individual sport and I was in my best shape. The exact night I feel I was at my best was districts for track. The night started off with my first race, shuttle hurdle relay. My team and I did great and ended up going to state for that race. Then I had my highschool graduation that same night. So I had to drive to my highschool and get my diploma. Then had to drive back to the track meet and run my second race, the 400 meter hurdles. I did good and went to state for that also. I ran track for a different school thats why I had to drive to my highschool the same night as the track meet.
     Those reasons are why I feel I was at my best. I got my diploma, which means I graduated high school, and still made it to state in two track events that night. One before I graduated and one after I graduated. It was a crazy night but I feel I was at my best for graduation and track.

  1. That sounds awesome. A lot of emotion in just one day!!! Kinda overwhelming I bet. I ran 400 hurdles and the shuttle too :) go hurdlers!!! It's especially good when you can keep up with your grades too because I know that it is hard.

  2. I have to agree with you The Chad. Good grades are pretty awesome, and they are necessary if you want to get anywhere. I am surprised that you were in track. But you kinda look like a person who loves to run.

  4. Having to multitask with activities in high school is definitely a challenge. (One I've personally dealt with all of high school!) It's always rewarding when you're able to accomplish all of your goals even with the limited time frame. It allows you to be involved in everything you want, even if it may take a little extra work. :)

  5. Sounds like a crazy night! I agree that good grades are important - without knowledge where would we be? But the fact that you could balance all of that is great!
